Here's a pretty simple thing I threw together with leftover bits, but it would be worthy of actually planning for it. The ones you see in restaraunts usually have chorizo in them, but a) I don't currently have any leftover chorizo, and b) who wants to mess around with cooking for a midnight snack?

  • 2 parts Nacho cheese
  • 2 parts Jack cheese, torn into small pieces
  • 1 part Black bean dip (we had this one from Pace)
  • Salsa to taste (I chose this one from Riverwalk Cantina, out of the four salsas in our fridge)
  • (optional) To kick it up that extra notch, a bit of chipotle powder, to taste (on the dining table where normal people have pepper and salt, we have chipotle, oregano, and paprika, and, oh yeah, pepper).
  • Well, ok, I guess you need some kind of corn chips to eat this on. Some people might think eating it directly off a spoon is, I don't know, not nutritional enough or something. Sometimes I eat raw carrots. This is not one of those times.

Throw this stuff in the bowl that already has the leftover velveeta in it and heat in the microwave until melt-y, approx 1-2 minutes, stirring a couple times.

Timer

The timer can count up from a time in the past or count down towards a time in the future.

The timer's appearance and the format of the time (and text) is very configurable. You can hide it's border, it's background, set the color and glow effects.

Sound Recorder

This is a simple recorder that records directly to an MP3 file. Recording can be paused and resumed.

The recording window has a compact mode and can be set to stay on top of other windows, so it can be out of the way, yet still visible.

When done recording, you can playback the recording or upload the file to an FTP site.

RocketDock with multiple bars\docks

Submitted by drew on

It seems there is plenty of interest about how to make RocketDock work with two or more docks or bars. Most answers say to use additional docking programs--one for each dock you want. Or use a commercial program that offers multiple docks. I think RocketDock is excellent except I want more than one. I finally figured out how to do it!
